Features to know about

Avoid Awkward Overhang: Flush, Factory-Look Bars

The flush design keeps the crossbars tight to the roofline, giving your setup a sleek, from-the-factory style. Nothing hangs past the side rails, so it keeps a clean, integrated look. The Yakima SightLine FX system blends in rather than standing out, making it look like part of the vehicle instead of an add-on.

Cut Down on Whistling: Aerodynamic Crossbars with Rubber Noise Strips

Long drives are quieter with these aero-style crossbars. The aerodynamic shape helps reduce wind drag, and the push-down rubber strips fill in the top channels to cut down on whistling and vibration as you drive. The result is a smoother, quieter trip whether you’re heading down the highway or winding through back roads.

Take What You Want on Every Trip: Works with Channel-Mount and Clamp-On Accessories

This rack is ready for just about any kind of adventure. It’s compatible with most bike, watersport, snow, and cargo carriers that mount in the top channels or clamp around the bars. That means you can load up kayaks in the summer, skis in the winter, or add a cargo box for a long camping trip—all using the same set of bars.

Built to Last: Solid Aluminum Construction with 165-lb Capacity

Strength and reliability matter when you’re hauling gear. These aluminum crossbars handle up to 165 lbs while staying lightweight and corrosion-resistant. They’re designed to hold steady under load without flexing or rattling, so you can hit the road confident that your gear is secure.

Keep Your Gear Protected: Add-On Yakima SKS Lock Cores

For extra security, you can add Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) to deter theft of both the rack and channel-mounted accessories. It’s an easy way to protect your setup when parked at campgrounds, hotels, or trailheads.
